The Art Pratt Foundation of Old Mission Rotary presented a grant of $9,300 for a new portable sound system for Act Like You Matter- Empower Yourself! to use at their school assemblies. They have presented to schools across San Diego, Orange and Los Angeles Counties.
Amy Jones Anichini created Act Like You Matter- Empower Yourself! to promote the well-being of children, tweens, and teens so that each child feels accepted and free to be themselves without being bullied. This past February 10th, Amy presented a program on Act Like You Matter- Empower Yourself! to Old Mission Rotary featuring their programs to promote acceptance, tolerance, empathy and kindness. Their mission is to help all children rise to their full potential without fear of being bullied. To achieve their mission, they offer bullying resilience coaching for kids, teens and parents in schools and in private sessions.
